Answer: d. have the silicon-oxygen tetrahedron as their structural unit.
Explanation:
Silicates are anions that have both Oxygen and Silicon as the basis of their structure. These two form a tetrahedron type structure that enable them to be useful for a whole lot of things.
Silicates are very abundant on Earth as they comprise around 95% of the Earth's crust as well as the upper mantle which explains why they are mostly found in igneous rocks.
The specific heat capacity of the metal given the data from the question is 0.66 J/gºC
<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
- Mass of metal (M) = 76 g
- Temperature of metal (T) = 96 °C
- Mass of water (Mᵥᵥ) = 120 g
- Temperature of water (Tᵥᵥ) = 24.5 °C
- Equilibrium temperature (Tₑ) = 31 °C
- Specific heat capacity of the water (Cᵥᵥ) = 4.184 J/gºC
- Specific heat capacity of metal (C) =?
<h3>How to determine the specific heat capacity of the metal</h3>
The specific heat capacity of the sample of the metal can be obtained as follow:
Heat loss = Heat gain
MC(M –Tₑ) = MᵥᵥCᵥᵥ(Tₑ – Tᵥᵥ)
76 × C × (96 – 31) = 120 × 4.184 × (31 – 24.5)
C × 4940 = 3263.52
Divide both side by 4940
C = 3263.52 / 4940
C = 0.66 J/gºC
